This specification applies only to output voltages greater than 2.2 V. 2 Start-up time is defined as the time from the rising edge of EN to when VOUT is at 90% of its nominal value. 3 Current-limit threshold is defined as the current at which the output voltage falls to 90% of the specified typical value. For example, the current limit for a 3.0 V output voltage is defined as the current that causes the output voltage to fall to 90% of 3.0 V (that is, 2.7 V).

ParameterSymbolMinTypMaxUnit Minimum Input and Output Capacitance1 CMIN 0.7 µF Capacitor ESR RESR 0.001 0.2 Ω 1 The minimum input and output capacitance should be greater than 0.7 μF over the full range of operating conditions. The full range of operating conditions in the application must be considered during device selection to ensure that the minimum capacitance specification is met. X7R and X5R type capacitors are recommended; Y5V and Z5U capacitors are not recommended for use with any LDO regulator. For more information, see the Input and Output Capacitor Properties section.
